We’re looking for a highly technical Lead IT Specialist to own and evolve our corporate IT systems/access and security at a senior level. This is not a “tickets all day” role — it’s a high technical role that still stays close to the planning and the execution. You’ll be responsible for building secure, configure, and well-governed systems or 3rd party integration across identity/access, endpoint management, device compliance, and core productivity platforms (Google Workspace and key SaaS).
This person will be the technical owner for IT foundations that support SOC2/ISO readiness, secure access, reliable onboarding/offboarding, and device compliance across a growing organization.
What you'll be doing:
Strategy
Participate and advise on the IT technical roadmap across identity, endpoint security, access governance, and core corporate systems.
Partner with Security/Infra to ensure SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 controls are operational (and not just documented).
Establish standards for device compliance, access management, and SaaS lifecycle (intake → review → onboarding → offboarding).
Drive adoption of scalable patterns: SSO-first, least privilege, automated lifecycle management, and measurable compliance.
Government of IT equipment in company offices (equipment in conference rooms, entrance doors, security cameras, etc.)
Technical/ Execution
Own Google Workspace administration end-to-end (org policies, groups, security settings, audits, access hygiene).
Lead Identity & Access Management: SSO/SAML, SCIM provisioning, group-based access control, and app access patterns.
Own device endpoint management at scale:
Kandji/Iru (Mac) and Intune (Windows) device policy enforcement
OS update compliance, encryption, malware protection, and reporting
Build and maintain operational automation:
BetterCloud or SaaS Manager workflows (onboarding/offboarding, group membership, access reviews)
Scripted automation (where appropriate) to reduce manual work
Own core “security hygiene” within IT:
Account lifecycle, joiner/mover/leaver processes
Device inventory accuracy and compliance dashboards
Audit evidence collection that’s clean and repeatable
Support vendor/tool governance:
Software inventory ownership (admin + business owner)
Vendor classification and risk review inputs (in partnership with Security/Legal)
Team / Collaboration
Partner with Infra/DevOps/Security to align on controls, identity design, and incident readiness.
Work with HR/PeopleOps on onboarding/offboarding and policy rollout.
Collaborate with Finance/Procurement on renewals, licensing discipline, and cost visibility.
Create clear documentation/runbooks so IT is easier to operate and scale.
Research/Best Practices
Define “how we work” standards: SLA tiers, escalation rules, evidence cadence, an
